Kiara Posted on Felicitaciones mi vida, sabes que estoy orgullosisima de ti y ue srpieme te apoyare porque se que esto te apasiona y te mereces todos los exitos del mundo TE AMO ahora pa lante y mucho empef1ooo
wow so basically not only would we be in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, but also Eygpt and the way she talks probably Iran how about we let the world run themselves for awhile and we take care of our country for once... Lets bring the troops home put em on the borders and actually do something for ourselves instead of spending another Billion dollars on another conflict. Have we not learned from our mistakes sometimes the devil we know is better then the devil we don't. Home many times have we swooped in to "Save the Day" only to put in a new government which is worse then the previous. What about those we helped out and then turn around on us. Whatever happened to good ole fashion Nationalism????? By giving forgein aid and relief to these countries we not only weaken the people and strengthen those in power and keep them in power. Look at Africa (the continent not the country as Mrs Palin thinks it it) Many countries in Africa recieve forgien aid from the USA. When that aid gets to those countries the warlords in charge take a large portion of this aid for themselves and then allow the rest to be distributated. This ensures they get the best and that the people stay satisified enough were they don't pose a threat to rebel and fight back.

I vote conservative cause I am a T party activist. I believe in closed boarders,low taxes, no unions. and pro Isreal to a point. If we owe China billions, How can we afford to support Isreal financially?
If you close your boarders, they'll find it hard to pay the rent, but then you won't have to feed them breakfast, either.
sorry, wrong topic. your t party is a joke, just like SARAH
Sarah Palin rubbing elbows with major world leaders. It'd be the most colossal intellectual pig party in human history!
Not since George W. Bush was still unafraid to travel overseas has there been such a potential for an international mental laughingstock.

I wonder if she went to India in the hope of finding some American Indians...
That such an ignoramus could even get elected dog-catcher is indicative of the intellectual level of the rest of the population
What state are you Govenor of?
I am voting for Donald Trump...he'll fix things.
Has Glenn Beck been to Israel? Or even outside the USA? You'll know he's going to run when he has dinner with Ben N!
The real question is, has Glenn Beck ever been to Earth? His blubbery body is certainly here, but mentally he always acts like he is in some parallel universe way out beyond Pluto, one where there is no reason or intellect, and the only emotion is a strange, unbalanced fear-rage.

Who's curtains did she cut up for that jacket or whatever it is she's wearing. Almost looks like the top half of a boxing robe...
I'll let her warbrobe manager know you were not pleased...
As stupid and self-serving as Sarah Palin so often is, she recently took the brave step of thumbing her nose at the righteous right by noting that one of her best friends is a lesbian and that she would not judge adults on their consensual se-xual "choices". Yeah, I know it's not a choice, but this was an amazingly refreshing thing to hear from ANYONE on the right, let alone someone as "out there" as old Sarah.
I now have to agree with her supporters that she is the only "real man" currently in the running for the Republican nomination!
John, don't fall for what politicians do when elections are coming up. It's called placating. She doesn't like you. She doesn't like me. She likes money and power.
@Luke But that's just it. This is NOT the move to make to shore up support going into primary season. If she had waited till the nomination and then said this, I'd be a whole lot more skeptical. And don't worry. I still evaluate the whole person and I would never, ever support Palin for anything except maybe court jester.
If there IS any politics in play here, it may well be that this is an opening salvo from the potential candidate on the right with the most political capital to burn who is also one of the most waffly about running that will make it easier for other candidates to cool down the anti-gay talk. And that, again, is a good thing.
I guess the question now is if the lesbian is still her friend now that Palin has put her evaluation of her gayness as merely a choice out there? If not, then was Palin merely sacrificing a friend for political purposes? Then her gay friend may have to wonder is Palin only cultivated a friendship with her for this eventual use?
"On Libya she said "It would have been different." Remarking that the U.S. has a tradition of not criticizing the president's foreign policy while on "foreign soil," she continued, "Certainly, there would have been more decisiveness, more commitment to those that are freedom fighters, that they know that America is on their side."
"There would have been more decisiveness, less dithering," Palin stated."
Now, didn't the same people who now support her basically ruin the careers of the Dixie Chicks over criticizing a president while on foreign soil? I wonder when the book burnings of her books and DVDs will begin?
Patriotism? Hmm, I guess nobody expects as much out of Sarah as they do out of country singers.
Muhahahaha the whole world is laughing at you America 🙂
Stupid and egotistical are all you need anymore to be famous in America.
Don't forget showing your "hoo-ha"...

Ask any quantum physicist if we even know what reality is, and if you're looking at it right now. And, what does "here" and "now" mean, anyway? Try just to understand gravity as a force of push, not pull, and you'll see how little we think we know. You can't see every thing there is in science; does that mean you don't believe in science?

I hope she runs. I hope she gets the GOP nomination. Maybe that will show that the country has finally hit bottom.
into a brick wall?
Maybe she is running – running away from some project or other. Maybe that's how she got to Israel.
SP should have read the following before her visit. She might have cancelled the trip if she did.

"New Torah For Modern Minds
Abraham, the Jewish patriarch, probably never existed. Nor did Moses. The entire Exodus story as recounted in the Bible probably never occurred. The same is true of the tumbling of the walls of Jericho. And David, far from being the fearless king who built Jerusalem into a mighty capital, was more likely a provincial leader whose reputation was later magnified to provide a rallying point for a fledgling nation.
Such startling propositions – the product of findings by archaeologists digging in Israel and its environs over the last 25 years – have gained wide acceptance among non-Orthodox rabbis. But there has been no attempt to disseminate these ideas or to discuss them with the laity – until now.
The United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism, which represents the 1.5 million Conservative Jews in the United States, has just issued a new Torah and commentary, the first for Conservatives in more than 60 years. Called "Etz Hayim" ("Tree of Life" in Hebrew), it offers an interpretation that incorporates the latest findings from archaeology, philology, anthropology and the study of ancient cultures. To the editors who worked on the book, it represents one of the boldest efforts ever to introduce into the religious mainstream a view of the Bible as a human rather than divine docu-ment. "
Sarah is Jewish, so probably has never heard of a Torah, unless you can see one from her house; nor is she the type to pay attention to any sort of intellectual musings. So, this story would probably not have made any difference to Ms. Sarah.
Sorry, I intended to say that Sarah ISN'T Jewish...
